Everyone loves those brief, frequently hilarious moments when newsreaders don't realise they're live on air.
But BBC News tested our love of newsreader gaffes to the absolute limit, leaving poor presenter Huw Edwards adrift for minutes on end during the 10pm bulletin this week.

As some on social media pointed out, with the slew of tragedies in the UK in recent weeks, watching a newsreader do bugger all was actually a great deal nicer than hearing the real headlines.
